Editor Public Ledger:
I have seen quite a number of ar
ticles lately in the News and Observ
er on the fashions and dresb of our
American women, in our -oivilized
and said to be Christianized, land,
which are all too true- In the , issue
of May 13th, one of our leading and
well known citizens, Maj. N. A. Greg
ory, has an article under the head:
"The Designers of Women's Attire,"
and I blush with shame when I have
to admit to its truthfulness. I shall
ask our County paper to publish it,
which I hope it will do, and I hope
our people will read it carefully and
seriously, and do as the Major sug
gests. "Let North Carolina with its
homogeneous population stem the
tide of demorlization and get back to
higher grounds." And he further
asks: "Why not have models and
fashions of our own that are decent
and not injurious to health, corrup
tive of morals and against the laws
of our Lord?" Again he states, "it
passes my understanding (and- so it
does mine) how any sensible, Chris
tian mother who has been taught to
say, 'from sin and temptation Lord,
deliver us,' can subject her daughter
to the snares and wiles the model
makers set up and decree as fash
ions." I have yet to see the man.
it matters not his standing, morally
or spiritually, but who blushes with
shame at the indecent dress of our
women, l cannoi see auj wumou

Contrary to popular belief, thfs
Polynesian people as a race are not
dwindling, but are being reinvigorat
ed by the infusion of alien plood. The
offspring of the mixed marriages are
taking wives from among the full
blooded Hawaiian strain, thus pre
venting the Hawaiian blood from los
ing its identity.
Prominent Japanese women
have decided to organize a woman's
peace association to promote world
peace. It is the intent of the organi
zation to co-operate with similar as
sociations in other countries.

The farmer is a producer of basic
material. His market is the world.
He is in competition with all farms
everywhere: A tariff cannot protect
him in any scheme of legalized rob
bery of his customers. Therefore he
j has always been waved aside at the
tariff councils by the-assurance that
protecting the manufacturer allows
the manufacturer to pay the farmer
a higher price than would be the
case otherwise. But now the farra-
i er is to have his prices raised by a
tariff on farm stuff. The farmer
! has protested , so long that he is be
; lieved to be tired of paying tariff on
! what he buys without getting some-
thing in return.
So we a.e to put the whole United
States on the basis of paying more
for everything we buy in order that
the man who sells mav get more
This might work all right if it would
work, but it still remains the fact
that the farmer has to pay more for
what he buys, but he cannot raise nr
price because he sells in the market
of the world in competition with ev
erybody, and he must meet the world
prices. The beneficient tariff sav?
he mav charge ' more". But it does
not tell him how to collect the bill or
sell the goods where the world wi
not buy. But it does prevent him
from buying at world-wide prices
for while he finds no tariff on what
